HotReactiveNativeMovies

react-native movies example with hot-reload(primarily for android) - shall make it work on iOS as well

#STEPS TO RUN

On Android with live Reload and DEBUG

1. npm run dev
2. cd android,
3. On the device - setup usb debugging
4. connect device
5. platform-tools/adb reverse tcp:8081 tcp:8081
6. platform-tools/adb reverse tcp:8080 tcp:8080
7. platform-tools/adb reverse tcp:8082 tcp:8082
8. ./gradlew clean installDebug
9. shake the device select debug options enable reload on JS change

Code as fast as speed now.

React Native is a Facebook developed tool set, which enables developer to build world-class application experiences on native platforms using a consistent developer experience based on JavaScript and React. The focus of React Native is on developer efficiency across all the platforms you care about - learn once, write anywhere.

Supported operating systems are >= Android 4.1 (API 16) and >= iOS 7.0.

Please refer to the official site for more detail introduction.

This project is a testing project using MoviesApp sample from React Native.

Development Environment Setup

To develop React Native Apps, do the following:

Setup Development Dependencies

• Install Homebrew to manage packages
• Install Node.js 4.0+, or using nvm commands

nvm install node && nvm alias default node

• Install watchman to watch node file changes

brew install watchman

• Install flow

brew install flow

In order to keep the programs up-to-date, it is recommended to run following periodically

brew update && brew upgrade

Setup Reactive Native

• Run following to install

npm install -g react-native-cli

• To create the initial App project run:

react-native init [project-name]

• To add a platform to existing project, e.g. adding Android to exsiting react Native project First update the react-native dependency in package.json file then run following commands:

npm install
react-native android

Project Setup

• git clone this project to your local environment
• run following commands to setup the project environment:

npm install

Native Development Setup

• For iOS
  • require Xcode 6.3+
• For Android
  • Android SDK
  • Further detail regarding Android package setup refer to here

Run the Apps

• To run the iOS App
